Nature's beauty herb: nettle

Urtica dioica, or more commonly known as stinging nettle, is one of nature's most mineral-dense plants and a true natural beauty promoter. While today it’s often dismissed as an irritating weed growing wild in gardens and along pathways, nettle has a long and respected history across many traditional cultures. Its roots, stems and leaves have been used for centuries in both medicinal and culinary practices — internally as a blood builder and tissue healer and topically to support skin healing from bites, burns and sun damage. It has been traditionally used in the treatment of arthritis, seasonal allergies and urinary tract disorders, as well as to strengthen the hair, clarify the skin and gently support the body's detoxification processes.
